classes and tear gassing degrees and protos the visit of the german chancellor who they see as a harbinger of more financial war. problems republican challenger mitt romney calls will syrian rebels to be armed while turkey deploy its forces to its border with the war torn country. and munition blocks a rock a military testing ground in central russia sparking hysteria among the.

twenty four hours a day seven days a week of this. clashes have broken out in greece and gets fired up protesters angry at the visit of bangalore merkel there are reports police are making preventative arrests the german chancellor is seen as appalled behind the policy bringing hardship and tough austerity to the greek people archie sara for it is in athens. clashes breaking out between the riot police and protesters on thin cognise square today this is going on as german chancellor merkel in the country and she's come here to show solidarity she says that all it's really done is serve to highlight the huge decision to remain within the country itself between the people and the government between the different you're saying states there is huge anger today on the streets of the five on the streets of athens.

visiting the country it is this year of a recession that she has been here since the euro crisis started it's been years and the agony it's been building this entire you've got to remember as well that the rhetoric from germany the rhetoric from some of these big strong year is a spike lee changed dramatically at the beginning of all of this crisis very close without obviously the isolates of the situation well then that's just more of the part of the the houses that this is dale starts and this is i just pushed the country into a desperate spiral of austerity even security operation this little where the riot police or the lighting of course the parliament that's thirty two bit today they've also got snipers on the roof before the helicopter gave the heads i mean the police presence is noticeably more than usual and that's really cool so

a lot of added to that that the protesters were told they weren't allowed to demonstrate peacefully as we said and as you can see they come out anyway absolutely anger as we said before what's been going on at the fact that she's been seeing a lot of confusion to people asking why now why is this point chancellor merkel saying first hands today the very real effects of those are starting measures that are going to close all this country from the far. right let's not talk to. social just like truck from the university of ajami good to see this now a lot of protesters came out in greece today despite the bad has is bad been counterproductive. well this bond simply fuels anger in the streets because even the rhetorical that will listen lonesome and chorus reminding people of the times of the military dictatorship in sixty seven to nine hundred

seventy four this complete ban on any form of gathering it on top of the center reluctance so people were really angry and they also see there's also a little rangar against mrs merkel who is being seen as a representative of all the less said than from of the konami a gratian against greece we are in the fifth year of recession we're in the third year or was there at the measures they're asking us for even harder austerity measures this a thirteen billion. cuts mainly in what concerns the wages and bench and so people were really really angry and i think that what has been today in. the demonstrations we witnessed was just you know something like a message from let's there we're going to see much more protests and i get in greece and you have to also take into consideration that the greek government has yet to run down the measures that is the actual measures the actual pockets of the

actual cuts have not yet been announced they're going to announce in the next days and there they will have to put them through parliament and this is also going to be days of protest days of strikes and i think that the situation is not very stable despite all this attempt even by mrs merkel to so some slab of support to mr prime minister some of us in the in in reality the greek government is not so stable since it is sitting on talk of a huge social crisis as a huge social crisis or can easily turn into a political crisis right and get merkel came to athens in a show of solidarity a word spoken a lot today but can the people of greece expect any concessions from her. well i think that's exactly the point where it's were spoken nothing else that's the point in what concerns that the months from that part of the european union and the

troika and of course the demagoguery might include it there may be the same you have to go through with it as you have to go through with the reforms that it doesn't make a liberalized liberal market or privatized practically everything on so public property so there's nothing actually like that nothing nothing tangible inwardness is not miss america just wrote some fragments communicated well and media support for mr summers but nothing nothing no for greek people lesson changes are still going to have to go through the cats and this is the problem this is what this or this process and no one saw is that ok mrs merkel comes here and so things are going to be better people have a totally aware that they will have to go through all of this measures and this is the problem this is or as a prime minister some are as is finding himself cornered here i mean he faces pressure to cut more from brussels and brylin while his own people i grazed by this will stare into how long can the greek leadership could take me with that balancing

act. i don't think they can contain it any more i don't think that this this this government has a local role life i had to read i think this is an unstable government one way or another whether it was a minor just a fuss. over the mystery to package or not this isn't a stable government that is going on so to say swell is the crisis pretty soon i don't think they're going to make it the way this balancing act because in the end what matters is that nice government is truly needed to my if it actually has something some shred of specular support on there running out of it. we'll leave it right there thank you very much mr pena geog says that's not terrorists from the university of age on so she tried they speaking to us on the greek crisis why the deepening crisis is in western europe is also sending my gran's in the opposite direction later on on the scene we're going to train to find out why people are

returning home to make a batch of himself for themselves. the reports say turkey's reinforcing its air base close to the border with syria after almost a week of returning fire a turkish news agency says at least twenty five additional fighter jets have been deployed turkey and egypt are also holding weeklong joint mabel drills in the mediterranean not far from syria's shores ankara has warned it will not shy from more if a vote and nature which has so far shunned the conflict says it's ready to defend its member nation but some reports suggest the shells a landing in turkey may be from weapons that uncorroborated so provided to syrian

rebels this violence is escalating across the country with bomb blasts and firefights in damascus the u.n. geve ban ki moon has called on the syrian government to unilateralist in miami but i don't know may i think you will get a job the pan african roots wire believes in nature is maneuvering to intervene. turkey is a long time member of the north atlantic treaty organization since one nine hundred fifty two and they're going to act in conjunction with other nato powers led by the united states their main objective is regime change against the assad government in syria they're using this border conflict between syria and turkey as a means of intervening more directly from a military standpoint within the un security council the us britain and france have

not been able to get their way in regard to authorizing some type of quote no fly zone unquote would actually means a authorization to carry out massive bombings against syria so they can utilize alleged violations of turkish land mass and an effort to further militarize the border between the two countries so i believe it's a very dangerous situation and that the united nations seems to be almost tripled in regard to any attempt to resolve this conflict because their efforts are being undermined by nato and the countries that are very much a part of the leadership of that military alliance. the white house republican hopeful mitt romney has called for more aggressive foreign policy in the middle east which would include all ming the al qaeda linked syrian rebels the democrats have had bags saying romney's stance legs vision and consistency. can has the details. mitt romney accused president obama of quote sitting on the sidelines end

of quote and not being aggressive enough on syria mr romney suggested actively arming the rebels with weapons that can bring down aircraft on the wall hangs he said quote the greater tragedy of it all is that we're missing a story opportunity to win new friends who share our values in the middle east end of quote but mitt romney's other remarks suggested that maybe he doesn't really care about whose hands the weapons would end up in because the objective that he stated it was to defeat assad seeing it as a stepping stone to iran iran is sending arms to assad because they know his downfall would be a strategic defeat for them we should be working no less vigorously to our international partners to support the many syrians who would deliver that defeat to iran rather than sitting on the sidelines so basically mitt romney suggested taking advantage of the crisis in syria to fulfill the goal of defeating iran and

blatant but straightforward remark basically expressing the same opportunistic approach to foreign policy with the u.s. has had for many years while obama campaign called romney reckless and amateurish when it comes to foreign policy so far the administration has stopped short of directly arming the rebels although washington is coordinating the efforts of their allies in the region that is saudi arabia qatar turkey which are providing weapons to the rebels one way or another but those allies are saying that they only provide smaller weapons that they would love to send heavy artillery but they don't have the green light from washington for that because reportedly the administration fears that the weapons might end up in the hands of terrorist experts say one of the reasons why the rebels are not settling down for a negotiated solution through dialogue is the signal that they get that sense that support is on the way that there will be an intervention and everybody now understands without a negotiated solution bloodshed will continue. a massive explosion and

their personnel are uninsured and all accounted for it does seem though that we are hearing that those no casualties no injuries amongst the civilian population however they have received quite a serious scare which is understandable when you think about the size and scale and sound of this explosion a huge booming blast ringing out gigantic plume of smoke and of course the shockwave that goes with these type of explosions all coming together to to leave them leave the local people and quite a bit little shaken now in the immediate aftermath of this explosion well we saw pretty much comic unveiling in four eyes online people posting on twitter and on other online sources that there had been military personnel injured and there are many military personnel remained unaccounted for the latest from the defense ministry is just simply not true that was hysteria following what was i mentioned a very loud explosion when it comes to incidents like this this isn't the first of its kind in russia in fact over the last three years there's been twenty such

incidents involving military munitions dumps of this nature and in fact this particular facility saw two incidents a place over the last few months which each resulted in two people being injured as i say though at the moment the news coming from the defense ministry is no. he's been injured and it all military personnel our county for bread over with our two dogs homo right now clamping down on us back sweet is a civil rights group of finds a new way to figure out if you're a man and machine before letting you answer websites by asking questions on human life also online. a famous visitor for joining us on just the ecuadorian embassy that pop superstar lady gaga joins him for the demo. board in a bad romance find out more about the five hour meeting at our news website.
